Ah, the force is strong in you Chris... And thats coming from someone who has only watched the first star wars movie, and not even all the way through.
Reminds me of Earyhrise, the picture of earth taken from the moon. How that blue/green pebnle must be such a wondrous sight amongst the vast blackness.
Packs such a punch, I had to check you hadn't snuck in a few more syllables 😀

Thank you Lorry. You know your avatar is telling me you have turned into seafood. Now I like seafood myself, especially prawns. Now what's it all about eh? Or am I totally mistaken and it's the insides of your skull?

Ha! It's an extreme close up of a tea towel, a deep dark red one. I have no idea why I done it, but done it I did 😀

A tea towel eh? Trying to impress us women with yer washing up skills:) Nah, minced brain is far more interesting :)

I never thought I'd be caught out 😀

Been keeping an eye on the black holes recently and some of it is mind blowing as we 'flat earthers' see ourselves as less than primitive but are mere amoeba in the scheme (if that). This took me there as Mars landings approach again. Haiku or senryu, nice work!

[Chris Shaw]

Maybe theres life out there? A bright star is all about hope to me.
